By Jennifer HoffmanDo you feel, at this time, that you are reviewing old lessons, and seeing the past repeating in your life? Are these part of lessons you thought you finished and they are appearing again? Do you feel as though you are moving backwards instead of forwards? This is an important time for humanity, as you move through the close of one paradigm and the opening of another. The shift into new energies has been gradual until now, and each experience you see from the past is an opportunity to make it ‘more than’ what you have had before. You do not have to change everything, just add one more level of energy that makes it ‘more than’ the past, which brings you into a new paradigm and that is your leap of faith.Every energetic frequency can be shifted at this time, and the energy of every experience is being reviewed, calibrated, and there is a choice for transformation and ascension, or to repeat the karmic cycle. If it feels tedious it is because you are bringing all of your experiences forward into a single moment, as you brought forward all of your karma into this lifetime, knowing that this would be the opportunity to transform those experiences. You are facing the final step into new ways of being. This is your ‘leap of faith’, the leaving behind of what you have known, which is based on the past and karma, and ascending into creation. The past is making its final appearance so you can make choices to be in that energy or to have an experience that is a leap of faith to move from the known experience of the past into the unknown potential of the present.With each new level of frequency and vibration you experience, you are being presented with opportunities to review past decisions and choices, through a repetition of experience, so you can choose between the past and the present, the old paradigm and a different one. It is not a process of moving backwards, but one of reviewing your energy and the paradigms and dimensions you occupy, recognizing patterns that can be changed in order to create energy that fits within higher dimensional structures. Changing paradigms is a leap of faith that moves you from what you know to the unknown, it is a step forward that begins with a backward step.Energy moves in a dynamic flow that continuously moves forward, and never moves backwards. If you feel that the past is replaying in your life it is because you are using the energy from an old paradigm to re-create the past. You can now learn to live in a new moment in the present but that requires a transformation, which is the path of ascension. You ascend from the old paradigm into a new one, from the past into an energetic step above it.The challenges that many of you are having right now are repetitions of past experiences, brought to you so that you can make new and different choices. If you have chosen fear in the past, you now have an opportunity to choose from the point of love or courage. If your past choices have included anger, drama and chaos, you will now have an opportunity to choose peace and joy. There is never a time when the Universe moves ‘backwards;’ that is your perception of the situation. Even as you shift to higher vibrations, you will still have to experience this dimension, to live among the people with whom you share your lives. These experiences are merely an opportunity to introduce new frequencies and to offer new energetic connections that they can choose to embrace or not.This is a time of great change and you are evolving and ascending, even though it may not appear that way at times. There is nothing that you are doing that is wrong or a mistake. Each choice that you make is the right choice for you, at the time that you make it. When you are ready to make a different choice, you make it at that time. Be patient with yourselves as you are experiencing tremendous levels of soul integration, each one opening new energetic portals of potential.Each shift in awareness invites new frequencies and a new leap of faith into different dimensions of being. Remember to practice detachment and be the observer, avoiding judgment of any situation so it can unfold into the full range of its choices. Then you can see things as they are, without the filters of your emotions, beliefs, and perceptions, so that you can remember that you are powerful, in control, and the creator of your reality in all of its dimensions, realities, opportunities, and potentials. Embrace your leap of faith and trust that it will lead you to the joy, love, peace, and abundance that you desire. ============================================= If you like this article and would like to work with me because you are ready for profound personal and spiritual transformation, consider a personal intuitive consultation or intuitive coaching, where we work together to examine your life path, purpose, potential, and possibilities and help you choose one that will bring you the joy, abundance, love, peace and power that you are ready for.
